I was thinking more of the ad text. The original post only includes the first couple sentences. Based on the pictures, comments here, and the forum thread that @69monaco found, it sounds like the seller tore the top end apart in 2020 due to an overheating problem which he suspected was a blown headgasket. Then he never got it back together, and the car was being sold with the engine still torn apart.
If you look at this forum thread that @69monaco found, I think it has all the same pictures not rolled into a video.
Ahhh - all the ad text mentioned was that he was starting up a business and needed the funds. I think sadly that he was in over his head in terms of the mechanicals surrounding a car like that - if you read the 5 pages of stuff on that ambulance forum linked above, one shakes their head with some of the avoidable situations he got himself into, through inexperience and sadly, bad advice.
I just skimmed most of it, but I came to the same conclusion. I saw that he timed the engine without a timing light, was chasing an overheating problem and hard hot-starting (either of which could have been a result of incorrect timing), installed an electric fan blowing air the wrong way, installed a new thermostat without knowing the opening temp, sketchy wiring job...
